i have this coworker who has only been with us a few months but is a very funny older man and i love those so i spend a lot of time with him at work and today he said "lemme ask you something. did you go to catholic school?" and i was like no and he said "i would have thought you did." but he didn't say what it meant. as the sandbox's catholic person can you explain it

spite n ease (harbl), Tuesday, 17 June 2014 01:00 (ten years ago) link

my first inclination is that he thought you were secretly naughty

but maybe not necessarily?

mookieproof, Tuesday, 17 June 2014 01:35 (ten years ago) link

no it was not that kind of situation at all now that i read my post it reads disgusting. we were talking about having ADHD OCD and disorganization

that's cool because i hate when funny endearing ppl are creepy and also hate myself for expecting them to be

mookieproof, Tuesday, 17 June 2014 02:13 (ten years ago) link

Irish name maybe?

but as to where he was heading with the question, idk could be almost anywhere really.

I'm only catholic in the same way that I can jump my own height- once, maybe, many thanks years ago, and even then it was only cos I was small

She has the air of being a lovely girl, no sense in denying it. I mean I'm sure you're a decent cove yourself, irl, but I've only so much to go round.

i have just been offered a house with no noisy neighbours and an extra bedroom and a garden and a shed and stuff but get this rent is 20% LESS than current place

ok we havent looked at it yet and the area is possibly sketchy but i know the owner and we're both tougher than she is so im not hugely concerned

i would like this noted as possibly big news and i would also like somebody to tell me that we definitely wont have any trouble getting out of our current tenancy, thanks

gordie and dingle are investigating the incident.

toadstool might (tehresa), Thursday, 15 October 2020 22:43 (four years ago) link

Ah see now that is interesting

Because the hnnngordie pronunciation is sheer Montrose speak, pure RTE and never actually heard in the hnnnnwild

But paschal takes it to hnnnnextremnnnnes

But the boys up the hill, yeah I know fellas talk like that my age- not the exact accent even, but the staccato bursts of suddenly-released furious nonsense.

Dingle was always Dingle but they made it into dingle-an-dangen but there was a revolt and now it's just Dingle again

I was there only last week and it's about as beautiful as we have, but obv the bucks staling the yos would be a concern in terms of a sandbox retreat there

was working fitting kitchens one summer a life ago and I walked into this apartment building we were working on that was getting a lot done on a few different units at once between electrics, kitchens, plastering and all that,so there were strange faces about the whole time. walked into a room getting painted by one of the first black guys I'd ever seen irl (I'm irish btw) and v likely the first I'd ever had spoken with, viz, at high volume from himself, HOWROOBI.
Well you can imagine, rly. I said ? in not as many words, being 16 and totally struck by the moment and wanting not to be unfriendly or awkward but at that stage of development socially where all I was projecting to the world was awkward unfriendliness. bastard had a gleam in his eye as he repeated happily HOWROOBI and at this stage I'm mugging like an early career Hugh Laurie, not wanting to say anything as obvious or stupid as "sorry I only speak english" (and being 16 still as apt to claim honours French, pass irish and three words of Dutch in any such sentence in any case).

dude advances, fuckin gleam in his eye now, slows it right down like I'm the idiot I'm clearly appearing to be, HOWR-OOBI, this is shit, I'm all but about to run out in agonised bewilderment or attempt a Chevy Chasesque bluff of massive proportions along the lines of generic multinational welcoming custom, when a fella walks in thats working with him:

HOWROOBI, GRAND HOWROOBI, GRAND. DOES THIS YUNG LAD NOT TAAAAWKATALL?

fuckin corkmen.

still didnt understand a word out of either of them the rest of the week, but yknow at least it felt better kinda thing.

A four-year-old in Northern Ireland had quite a to-do list on October 24. Caroline O’Neill recorded this video of her imaginative son Darragh going over everything he had planned for the day – only one day after he got his driver’s license, he said.

O’Neill told Storyful her son is a “very busy man,” as the lad notes in the video.

“He loves to work hard and farm the land with his brother and daddy and grandas,” she said. “He is a hardworking wee boy.”

In the video Darragh can be heard going through the impressive pretend list, which includes picking up the keys to the car he just bought, putting in tiles in the house he’s building, cleaning windows, putting up barbed wire, cutting sheep, and much more.

I had that approximate accent btwn c.89-94 but we moved back to the west again and at that stage i dropped accents like normal kids changed tshirts so the broad northern drawl of teyan heyans quickly reverted to the rushed and narrow tin hins of my native county

finished the first season of shadow & bone at yr suggestion

pretty decent imo. and as you said, everyone is incredibly attractive. a bit too much of her and him moping over each other. having not read the books i cannot tell all these hot people with vaguely russian names apart, but no biggie. they did a so-so job selling the bad guy as not the bad guy, but c'mon you can't make his special power Suffocating Darkness without tipping his hand

not surprised that netflix cancelled it; it looks insanely expensive

oops welp

mookieproof, Monday, 12 February 2024 05:27 (eight months ago) link

oh welp

it drops off a little from what ive seen of season 2 tbh but there was plenty of reason to watch it and hopefully we'll see a lot of the cast kick on from there

its good that more and more fantasy is getting adapted but im longing for someone to manage to make magic/dark threats not such shorthand cliche

magic in WOT looks awful, bad guys just look like guys in masks, shadoe and bone was just clouds.

like i know angsty earnest puberty magic potential stories share similarities but the good ones all read as if the light and dark have their own texture in that tale, which i think is lost by use of the same effects onscreen every time

we'll give Peter Jackson his credit there at least
